Best of 2010 from our Rock Yard Collection

    The Rock Yard collection is a turn of nature’s treasures in fossils, minerals and raw rocks coming to life as single pendants or incorporated into necklace and earring sets. It is by far the most watched and purchased of all our collections; especially the designs using fossils and minerals. This collection is by far the toughest to pick the best of the year from, but here’s our shot at it!






    A twist of old turquoise meets million year old fossil; a lovely button ammonite fossil hand wire wrapped in brass non-tarnish wire is at the focal. The base of the necklace is blue turquoise and a green/blue turquoise mosaic mix bead and accents of gold tone pewter.




     




    Many people are used to seeing the ammonite cut on the half shell, but I’ve been working with the whole thing! This design is a whole red ammonite with fire on both sides, encased in brass non-tarnish wire; accented with charmed crystal rondelle beads, gorgeous wavy bronzite and lampwork beads in black to beige design.


     



    Black and white in a nice sized large orthoceras fossil hand wire wrapped in non-tarnish silver wire as a pendant. The necklace base is onyx, red (dyed) coral, Swarovski black cosmo crystals and sterling silver textured square beads.








    The charmed necklaces were such a hit that I didn’t want to leave out the fossils; so I created this one using a small orthoceras fossil encased in non-tarnish silver wire and then charmed many swarovski crystals, cloisonné beads and freshwater cultured pearls. All set stationary on a silk black cord with matching earrings in a double coiled spiral.





      


    A large goniatite fossil pendant in soft earthy colors all hand wire wrapped in brass non-tarnish wire is the focal in this design. Then I paired it with two strands of coral chips and long ceramic Tibetan beads which are capped in gunmetal filigree.



      




    Digging around at Tucson one can find some real treasures and I got lucky with several pairs of matching earring and pendant ammonite fossils. This beautiful and striking earthy color in this half shell ammonite fossil that is hand wire wrapped in brass non-tarnish wire; the matching earrings are the same colors and mounted on posts. It is hung from and can be removed to wear on other cords or collars, a beige silk cord.

Best of 2010 from our Mystic Artisan Collection


    By far, the largest of our collections is the Mystic Artisan designs and with so many different ones, it was hard to choose just a few. This collection is where high elegance meets trendy, chic and bold in necklaces set in agate, jasper, pearl dichroic glass, swarovski crystals and many more. So here’s several of the best/favorite from this collection!




    Dichroic glass pendant and earrings in pink set to an all black back ground, then mixed with onyx stones cut on the diamond to overlap (a difficult cut and unusually hard shape to find in stones) and more pink in faceted graduated rondelle crystals (some hand charmed) with a metallic sheen.








    This is the first of the charmed necklace collection that I did and has remained a favorite. I started with a nice dichroic pendant in soft shades of lime green, pink, mauve, and gold. Then set it with tons of hand created charms in freshwater cultured pearls, swarovski crystals and several wired spirals of non-tarnish brass wire. Everything is captured stationary on a beige silk cord. 




    Murano glass pendants are great to use as a focal; here I’ve paired a lovely heart pendant in cream, blue and red with butterscotch quartz nuggets, swarovski crystals and more pearls. The clusters of crystals at the bail and through-out the necklace are all hand charmed.





     





    Another really big Murano glass pendant in puffy heart red; clustered together with freshwater cultured pearls, swarovski crystals, onyx, and several double coiled hand wired beads in non-tarnish silver wire. All held captive stationary on a black silk cord.



     



    Polymer clay is a really great medium to work with; the beads are so lightweight and are created in just about any pattern. This design features graduated rounds of polymer clay beads shades of blue flowers set against a creamy white background. The big round was used as a focal drop pendant and has open charm dangles; more charms, crystals and freshwater cultured pearls finish off this necklace.






     
     
     
    A bit different but one of my favorite combinations in stones; starting with a center heart pendant in turquoise that is flanked with faceted round turquoise, crystals and finished with soft button freshwater cultured pearls. The earrings hold tons of cascading charmed pearls over a single turquoise faceted round.

Know Your Silver Jewelry


    There are many kinds of jewelry available today. Earlier there used to be only limited jewelry options but silver is something that is used for making ornaments & jewelry from a very long time. Due to its quality to blend into any kind of shape & size as required and to add shine in every piece of jewelry, silver has great demand in the market. Silver is basically a metal with the highest thermal & electrical conductivity. Most of the silver is a by product of lead, gold, copper & zinc refining. Widely used for making silver jewelry.

    When we think or talk about silver, the very first thing that we think is silver jewelry. But silver is a kind of metal, which is used for a variety of things from making ornaments to utensils, mirrors & even in electrical conductors & contacts. It has multiple uses of its own. But here we are talking about silver jewelry. Silver in its pure form is soft – to be used to create a strong & durable jewelry. That is why, it is mixed with other metals to make it bit hard. And when some other metal is mixed with silver, it gives birth to another kind of material called sterling silver, which is as beautiful & shiny as silver itself, and with new characteristics of hardness in it. It is used to make the ornaments like Sterling Silver rings or sterling silver necklaces. Silver is not only a metal which is used to make ornaments & utensils or to be used for the electrical things. It was considered that silver exist with beneficial healing and with the anti-disease metal properties. That is the reason for which in ancient times people used to keep wines, water, etc. in silver vessels & bottles. In 1990 also, people used to keep silver coins into milk so as to protect its freshness. Silver also have a property of inhibiting the growth of fungi & bacteria and that is why it was added in clothes, especially socks, to reduce any kind of fungal infection & bad odor.

    Apart from its use of making silver jewelry such as silver bracelets & earrings, it has various other uses. Silver is a very useful & important metal to be found on this planet. But the way this metal is used, it shows that our future generation will not be able to use it for a very long time. For this reason, it should be protected and used with all care & limit.

More To Silver-Sterling Silver


    We all love wearing jewelry, whether men or women. Jewelry is a part of every person’s life. We are here to talk about the beautiful white jewelry that is made from a metal which is very soft and of a great use for all of us. We are talking about silver. As we know silver in its pure form is soft, hence difficult to hold strength. Other metals are mixed with it to make it strong, in order to increase its durability. When another metal is mixed into silver, another substance is formed, which is called Sterling Silver. This is something that we find in all our silver jewelry.

    Sterling Silver is the silver which is used to make ornaments since ancient times. As described above, it is a mixture of silver & some other metal. As silver has to be mixed with some other metal to make ornaments, people can be duped by jewelry makers as they can mix more of other metals & less of silver to make ornaments & still call it a silver jewelry. For this reason, US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) considers that any silver jewelry is called a silver jewelry when it contains at least 92.5% of actual pure silver to it. 92.5% is the ratio in which pure silver is to be mixed with the other metal to make ornaments. Majority of the times, the remaining 7.5% of the other metal is of copper. It is copper, which is widely used with silver to make jewelry like sterling silver rings or sterling silver necklaces. Copper provides the hardness that pure silver needs & the tendency to tarnish.

    I think now you’ll be absolutely clear with what kind of jewelry you might be looking for & whether it is a sterling silver ring or any other silver jewelry. Make sure you take good care of your silver jewelry. Sterling silver jewelry should be stored in clothes or bags that protect them from any kind of tarnish to the ornament. They should be kept in a dry & cold place, away from any other kind of jewelry in order to protect it from scratches. Celebrity inspired jewelry should be cleaned with the help of polishing cloth. Do not use any kind of toothpaste to clean it.

Teenagers all over the world are looking for Twilight inspired accessories. Even Wal-Mart is keen on cashing on this opportunity by providing the Twilight inspired merchandise to attract the teens.

    Not just movies, even television shows can create this desire as they get popularized among the mass. The television channel TLC is one such channel which shows fashion and jewelry that shows rich and famous wearing these jewelries. When people watch these programs they get inspired by these jewelries and they purchase these celebrity inspired jewelry People demand the same set of jewelry that their favorite characters are wearing in the show.

A Heat Treatment of Turquoise

    When you think of turquoise visions of the southwest and indian designs come to mind; the beautiful colors range from the robin eggs blue, sky blue, deep shades of blue to lime green and deep shades of green, all with matrix veining of black to brown and in-between. Turquoise is too soft by nature and must be stabilized or treated to keep that beauty. Another problem of untreated turquoise is that the color and sheen fade over time. Though initially, the natural stone may be a brilliant sky blue or blue-green, colors will fade to duller greens or blues eventually.

    One of the processes is called heating to achieve the more desirable colors; though this does not change the character of the stone and it is usually considered an acceptable standard process in the lapidary and jewelry industry.

    These turquoise stones have been heat treated to achieve the brown color from deep to medium and bring out the matrix veining. Each design has been created with a different flavor…..




    First, a twist of traditional turquoise, Arizona ivoryite and a splash of Swarovski faceted rondelle blush crystals and a focal pendant in Brazilian Oco; hand wire wrapped in non-tarnish rose colored wire.








    Second, a more traditional turquoise design with southwestern lampwork beads, Swarovski faceted bicone turquoise crystals and faceted rectangular yellow citrine stones.


    Different designs but still using the natural stone of turquoise that has been heat treated; in this case to bring out a natural soft brown color.
